[PATCH 1/5] KVM: arm64: pkvm: Move error handling to the end of kvm_hyp_cpu_entry

We currently handle CPUs having booted at EL1 in the middle of
the kvm_hyp_cpu_entry function. Not only this adversely affects
readability, but this is also at a bizarre spot should more
error handling be added (which we're about to do).
Move the WFE/WFI loop to the end of the function and fix a comment.
